>>37512146>They're actually like wings at all, that's why they can be retracted like that.They PHYSICALLY CAN'T be retracted like that, since it would require a significant portion of its wings to disappear inside its body. that's why it has two different models. It's not for optimization at all, it's the only way to make the wings look like a cape when they are folded. They should have just scrapped that part of the design instead of going through the trouble of making two different models with different wing anatomy to make it possible.
You started by comparing them to real life bird wings and now you're saying they are like arms and that makes them flexible. Make up your mind. I'm honestly getting a bit tired of this shit.
>>37512174If it were universally beloved like you said, then we wouldn't need to have this discussion, though.
>>37512199Then we agree that Decidueye's wings are physically impossible, even if in your opinion this is an acceptable flaw, right? I've never seen a Pokemon having to change their model and design for a feature as basic as unfoling its wings to work, so I consider this an unacceptable flaw.
